Options Based Approach to Abortion Healing
The healing journey takes many shapes. Support After Abortion encourages options-based healing approaches. Our ground-breaking consumer research studies conducted by ShepardResearch show the importance of offering options in order to help men and women hurting after abortion experiences to find the hope and healing they deserve in a way that they desire.
While a faith-based, in-person curriculum can be effective, it is not something everyone seeking healing is comfortable with or interested in. Yet, 95% of existing abortion healing programs meet in-person and lead with a faith-based message.
Support After Abortion creates programming and equips abortion healing providers with training, tools, and resources to meet people where they are with the type of healing options they are open to receiving.
For example, we created faith and not-faith versions of our abortion healing resource Keys to Hope & Healing for both men and women, in English and Spanish.
We also offer numerous online resources for clients and providers and encourage providers to offer virtual, as well as in person, abortion healing programs.
I love watching the healing process unfold. I can see why it’s so important to meet people hurting after abortion at their point of need. For so many years we only offered faith-based studies, so we missed the opportunity to comfort those who can’t or don’t want to step into that arena.

I was one of those who thought “in person” was the only way to lead a group. I’ve learned virtual is as effective and maybe even more so than in person. I can look at all the participants’ faces at one time. The silences somehow seem easier. It’s amazing. I meet women that I never would have encountered in person – ladies from all over the country and even from foreign countries. Our ministry has taken this concept and gone Virtual.

Healing is a journey, “not a one and done”
We may meet hurting individuals anywhere along their journey path. The type of help a person needs at one point may be different from another point. Our healing, experiences, relationships, and changing perspectives may allow for new healing down the path.
As a virtual support group facilitator I get the honor of witnessing others break free from their bondage. But what is equally amazing is I personally get to break free of the bondage in my own life. Talking out loud with others is so impactful, so worth it. Healing is never one and done. Even as a leader, we are called to unlayer something new within these groups during each session. It is truly amazing.
– Abortion Healing Provider
Even as a group leader I have found myself occasionally wondering, “When will I be fully healed?” It has become quite clear on my healing journey that my abortion is a symptom of something so much deeper. If I had just gone though one abortion healing group and stopped, I wouldn’t find the closure or truths that I needed to. Leading groups is not something I ever saw myself doing, but I want every single person hurting from abortion to dig deeper and keep going to uncover their truths.

I thoroughly enjoyed the webinar series on Keys to Hope and Healing and am currently working through its content. It is exceptional! Entirely accurate, concise, and filled with non-judgment and compassion. Thank you so much for providing the webinar. I was so touched by the women and their gut-wrenching testimonies. They are, for lack of better wording “my people,” and I feel entirely at home with them. I truly know I am not alone when I participate in a Support After Abortion training opportunity or monthly webinar.
